University Leaders at the Summit shared examples from their own institutions of the distinct set of challenges which PGRs face such as; expectations of high achievement, supervisory relationships and career insecurity. During the Global Summit, it was agreed that supporting mental health and wellbeing of Postgraduate researchers is a priority for the international graduate education community. The principals and actions aim to promote creation of spaces and communities which support wellbeing and allow PGRs to work productively and fruitfully.<\/p>\n
Many of the actions agreed are central to the work of the PGR Well bee-ing Project and through signing the statement, the University of Manchester has demonstrated a continued commitment to improving PGR wellbeing and mental health.<\/p>\n
